Sometimes the burden God has given us to teach and live His Word in Haiti feels so heavy.
And sometimes so light.
And when Pastor Bob...
Dr. Charles...
Dr. Brent...
and Dr. Rod are here, teaching and discipling with us,
it feels like nothing but the joy it always should.
It's been a great start to our second set of intensive courses this semester, and with classes ranging from Homiletics and New Testament to Evangelism, Discipleship and Pastoral Theology...it's good and deep and transforming.
New students continue to be added almost every day, making this year's first year class the biggest Matt and I have seen (almost 20!)
Having these guys (and Bob's fantastic wife, Launa) and Carol here also means lots of good community for our community, and everything from meals to game nights to our Monday night Bible study has been all the sweeter because of them.
Phil has been incredibly sick this past week and is finally on the mend, the girls are happy to have started school (first day went well! M, W, F school, Tues., Thursday and Saturday, homeschool) and it is a joy to see our Emmaus family all at work: translating, teaching, purchasing, printing, cooking, cleaning, laundry, singing, studying, writing, parenting, filing, learning, washing dishes and cutting grass...all unto Him.
